Shahid & Milla Jovovich- Punjabi gangster & firangi moll?


Shahid & Milla Jovovich- Punjabi gangster & firangi moll?Shahid Kapoor gets to choose between Deepa Mehta's Beeba Boyz or Mira Nair's Reluctant Fundamentalist. Which will he pick?

Shahid Kapoor is in a dilemma. He has been offered the central role in two international projects by two of the most recognised Indian female directors abroad Mira Nair and Deepa Mehta, and he can pick only one.

Not only do the dates for the two projects clash, so do the directors helming the two projects.

NRI queens both, Mehta and Nair have never been known to see eye to eye.

While Mira Nair's The Namesake could be considered the breakthrough Indian film in the international market, her rival Deepa Mehta's Water is the desi film that has cracked the list of Oscar-nominated films in the foreign language film category.

Competitors

Both the directors are ready to embark on another competitive journey.

While Mira wants to cast Shaks in her wide-screen adaptation of Mohsin Hamid's The Reluctant Fundamentalist, Deepa wants to pair him against the Resident Evil hottie Milla Jovovich in her film entitled Beeba Boyz about a Punjabi gangster and his firangi moll.

Says a source close to Deepa, "She feels Shahid's boyish charm and his inherent Punjabiyat is perfect for the part in Beeba Boyz. She has in fact sounded him out and he has shown interest."

But the actor knows he can do only one of the two films. Which one will he pick? It is an either/or situation. Your call, Shahid.
